[Opinions] Re: Twelve children
in reply to a message by peregrine
One girl beginning with V - Vickie, not Victoria (Vickie is a good friend's full name)
Two girls beginning with D - Dinah and Daisy
One girl beginning with A - Annabel
Two girls beginning with M - Marianne and Margaret
Two boys beginning with D - David and, er, Derek?
Two boys beginning with A - Adrian and Alastair
Two boys beginning with M - Martin and Michael
Dash, nn for one of Santa's reindeer? Darla is (a) dreadful and (b) rhymes with Mara, which isn't very good itself. Marvellous and Modi are as close as names can get to child abuse. How to pronounce Martalya - marTALya or MARtaLEEa? Not good either way and too close to Mara. The first four names and the last three are pretty well OK, but the middle ones do their owners no favours.
